Whitehuskyelvis Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Hey everyone! First time Husky owner. I have a Beautiful White husky male named Elvis. he is 3.5 months. Big boy. and big ears that flopped but now just one flops. everyone asks oh shepard? Im like no husky ... is it normal? or do you all think he isnt pure bread. bc Elvis's breeder gave me papers for AKC to be signed up. 3 photos are posted. 1) 1st day with him 2) 1st day with him 3) a week later let me know what you think. -Amanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitehuskyelvis Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 I saw them from a distance and they are def pure bred huskies. & the video of him and his siblings. the rest are black and white ones, red/white ones, and grey/white ones and are def huskies. I feel hes in an awkward stage =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissu & Aara Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 He is beautiful His ears will straighten out as he gets older, and he will grow into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitehuskyelvis Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 okay =] I love them no matter what. but good to know. bc i dont want people to be like u sure he is a pure bred. when he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kissu & Aara Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 People will find the silliest reasons to ask if he is pure bred I get asked that cause Kissuna doesn't have a face mask. When I've told people huskies can be pure white they seem very shocked, and say they thought only GSD could be pure white. But the ears are nothing to worry about. At the most, I think its by two years at the most, and can definitely happen sooner, they will stand erect and he will grow into them. At that point you'll look back at old photos and giggle at how huge and silly his ears were. Did I mention he's beautiful? Oh and welcome to the pack!

Whitehuskyelvis Posted July 6, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Thank u! ya hes so cute and he knows how good looking he is lol. ya mine is white but if u look u has a light sandywhite color creating a face mask. but not many notice it. but its so neat. and I love his ears. I was just curious bc a husky owner in my area at the dog park asked if he was pure bred. so i was worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kissu & Aara Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 So there's still hope for Kuma's big ears lol maybe his tip will straighten up too Don't hold me to it though! I've read that in a book or two and heard it from Kissus breeder, so maybe. Everywhere else I've heard by a year. But Kissus breeder did have a sibling from another litter who was there. When I saw him he had erect ears. But in pictures of him at a year and three weeks he had huge ears still and one was still flopped over. When I saw him he was 3 and a half and she said his ears started looking normal at 2 years. Kissus never flopped though. They were just typical huge husky puppy ears.

shadow01 Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 Sometimes teething can affect ear floppiness Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GemSteve&Loki Posted July 6, 2011 Report Share Posted July 6, 2011 White huskies!! Gorgeous! So is my boy! I always get asked if Loki is an Alsatian! I reply "no pure husky!" To which people go "aww" all over then they clock his beautiful blue eyes and realise that "oh yes course he's husky with those eyes!" coo coo coo I just find it funny !! Nothing beats my gorgeous loving boy. I believe ears are like muscle to the dogs and so your dog will grow into them and begin to move it more under control Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debsqt Posted July 21, 2020 Report Share Posted July 21, 2020 That's like our husky. We got him in 2 mos and both his ear are flop. He is too weak. Then came a week one ear has risen. Then we fed him bones and fish both went up in 10 days. He is also round now. His ears are so big like a bat ears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
